Snoslinger Posted May 27, 2017 Author Share Posted May 27, 2017 “Over the last eight years, the United States spent more on defense than all other NATO countries combined,” this doesn't mean jack shit and we've only ourselves to blame for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ez ryder Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Trump in his Brussels address also declined to confirm the U.S. commitment to Article 5 of the treaty, which guarantees the U.S. would back a treaty partner in the event of a conflict with a foreign power.

However, the commitments are for NATO allies to spend more on defense overall, mainly on their own militaries – so the increases would not necessarily be seen at headquarters but in the military budgets of individual countries. key words so no one who wrote this article at this point is sure exactly how much more money they will contribute to nato it self Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highmarketrider Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 And the 2% target doesn't just cover spending on defense to meet NATO commitments. The money can be used to fund other activities such as European peace missions in the Central African Republic and Mali, as well as national missions that are not part of NATO operations, for example the fight against ISIS.

highmarketrider Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Direct contributions are made to finance requirements of the Alliance that serve the interests of all 28 members - and are not the responsibility of any single member - such as NATO-wide air defence or command and control systems. Costs are borne collectively, often using the principle of common funding. Within the principle of common funding, all 28 members contribute according to an agreed cost-share formula, based on Gross National Income, which represents a small percentage of each member’s defence budget. http://www.nato.int/cps/ro/natohq/topics_67655.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
